My Review

Very good driver, we wasted some time waiting for him, he was on the other end of the exit because his directions said meet to the right of the exit doors, while our instructions said to meet on the left side.

Our guide Aaron was very fun and knowledgeable. Met us at the train station as specified. The weather was perfect. This tour requires alot of walking. Shopping at the market was a great experience and we were able to pick up a bottle of local wine (very reasonable) for our picnic. Aaron provided the wine opener and cups. The lunch was very good it was a choice of about four different types of baguette sandwiches,a nice desert and bottled water. Picnic in the gardens of Versailles with views of the Palace was awesome. The tour of the palace was self guided and just breathtaking.Tickets for train to and from Paris were included. We got off at the staion near the Eiffel Tower and then joined our next tour which was skip the lines tour. After that we took a relaxing Seine River boat tour that leaves/returns near the Eiffel Tower.

Our guide Marcus was great! He mwt us exactly where specifed. There is no reason to stand in the long lines to and waste precious vacation time, when you can just purchase the "skip the lines" tickets and get a terrific tour as well. We were able to get on the elevator before hundreds of others waiting to get on (only one elevator was operating that day). We got off on the second level,where we got to see Paris from every direction with interesting facts given by our guide. After the tour was over we were free to take the elevator to the top of the Eiffel Tower and stay as long as we wanted.

This was a very enjoyable tour. It was a perfect sunny day, we loved the tours of Warwick Castle, Statford and Oxford. Wished we could have seen more of the Cotswolds or at least stop/slow down along the way to see the thatch roofed cottages and more of the villages that we drove through. Lunch at the Whte Hare Pub was okay, we wished that it was in a more typical Cotswold village with the charming buldings that we envisioned.

I am a fan of "skip the Lines" by not wasting precious vacation time waiting in long lines. Tours are given by the Beefeaters, they are very knowleageable and funny. The rest of the tour is on your own with good advice given by the guide beforehand.
